Good color combo on the Car. I would go with de-chroming the entire car, some H&R Springs and some 20" M40's just like you said...

Here is a White C63 on 19" M40's in Matte Black... What do you think?

I'm actually not a big fan of blacked out wheels on the C63... that same wheel in 20's with a different finish would be super hot.

Thanks for all the replies guys and thanks for the welcome I'll get some pictures up as soon as I give the car a nice wash. As for the interior im pretty satisfied with it as of now, it would be nice to have the CF inserts but I'm worried more about the exterior atm. I've seen the car with the same wheels in white and it doesnt look too bad IMO, but the reason i say black is because they're for a good price.

All I have done to the car so far is a resonator delete and blacked out tail lights and reflectors. I'm thinking of putting on some 20'' matte black HRE M40's but see alot of M3's and CLK 63's already with them. Along with de-chroming the exterior to match the rims and dropping the car. Any opinions on a different set of wheels that would look good on the car? Thanks in advance

Does anyone have a picture of the stock rims black or can photoshop one? I really can't picture what they would look like

Thanks for the pic. It doesn't look bad at all. I'm gonna have to rethink what I wanna do now :P I'll get some pictures of the car up within the next couple days and get some more opinions before my final decision. Thanks again all

The painted grill looks nice. If you're going to do all black wheels, you might as well just paint the stockers. No point in buying fancy, expensive wheels just to paint them black so no one will notice them.
